Shopping Tips!

Do wear comfortable walking shoes (some you’ve already broken in) or your feet will be aching by the end of the day.

Wear sunglasses and carry abottle of water.

Take thebiggest hand bag you got so that you can put in all your clothes together in one bag and avoid taking Plastic bags from the vendors.

Bargaining skills! Do not hesitate to put your first bid as low as 50% of the shopkeeper’s bid even if he gives you a look. Be as stingy as you can!

Always examine the clothing item from all angles and sides, including the bottom, and look for missing pieces, torn edges or any major defects.

Visit the market during the day time as it will be difficult to determine the correct color of the item you are planning to purchase when its dark.

Avoid buying Jumpsuits and Trousers as they might not be of proper fitting. Better to take a measuring tape if you are planning on buying one.
